Jackpot

I was busted, I was battered
Begging for more with a low-down degenerate soul

I was bereft like a bottle
Adrift on the sea with a message only you could read

I got lost in that old fallacy

Sometimes we’re lucky and sometimes we ain’t
But we keep on playin’ the game
Sometimes we hit the jackpot and we don’t know what to do
Like the day that I met you

I was desperate, I was damaged
Put down all I had with the feral finesse of the damned

I was crushed out, I was crippled
The king of hearts cried with a broad sword right through his mind

I don’t know how you found me in time

Sometimes we’re lucky and sometimes we ain’t
But we keep on playin’ the game
Sometimes we hit the jackpot and we don’t know what to do
Like the day that I met you
